Fish shell use ctrl+f shortcut for completing a suggestion. Using the ctrl key forces me to change my hand position over the keyboard. As an alternative, we can use space+enter shortcut as a.

  1. Solved the problem for me also. For anyone else who encounters this I had to add /usr/local/bin/fish to /etc/shells and then I had to re-run the command. Chsh -s /usr/local/bin/fish. After that, fish was now the default shell for OS X Terminal!
  2. It depends on what you feel comfortable with and what your needs are but I personally use bash, which is an enhanced version of the Bourne shell(sh), so far have had no problems. However, the z-shell is considered to be the most user friendly.
